Archive for February, 2015

While we’re halfway through February, months have gone by where we’ve been wearing jackets, parkas and hoodies on a regular basis along with coordinating pieces to keep us warm. Keeping your outfits fresh and not repetitive is a task, so we’ve put together some looks for you to show how you can mix it up with various types of outerwear and how they coordinate with the other pieces you wear.

For the first look, our model is wearing a grey Hudson short-sleeve hoodie with a long-sleeve shirt layered underneath it. The hoodie is the darkest part of the outfit, while the rest of the look is lighter even down to the crisp white kicks. For more casual days, this look is great if you’re looking to be fresh yet still comfortable.

The next look is anchored by a Carolina Blue Nike zip-up hoodie, which is paired with clean and classic beige pants and light-colored Nikes to cap it off. The pants and kicks serve as a staple for one’s wardrobe while the hoodie brings that pop of color while keeping things casual and light.

The last look is the most sophisticated of three, which features a variety of textures and patterns for the two-tone windbreaker, grey jogger pants, highly-patterned Nike boots and grey ball cap. Although there is a lot going on with this look from a detail perspective, the look comes together by its common color: grey. Each part of the outfit returns to that theme which allows anyone to recognize there was thought and individual style put into this outfit.

The adidas Yeezy 750 Boost is set to release this Saturday, February 14th at select New York City Foot Locker locations. See below for details on how you can reserve this shoe.
